Have to give shoutouts to Keano for calling my youth academies a highlight of our updates and Simp for giving love to my old Dagenham/Alcorcon CM's. I feel the love. I'm glad you guys enjoyed the extra highlights on one of the recent updates, I won't always have that many but I'll try to have at least one or two in every update or at least pictures (which I sometimes hide in spoilers to not make the pages long).

I'm sure your objectives were something like "avoid a bottom of the table finish" or something like that since it's Dorados. And by the way it's remarkable you were able to achieve that much with that club. This year they managed to secure relegation well before the season was over. Plus with half their squad being loanees I bet the transfer window was tough for you. Sorry I wasn't able to give you a heads up about the Libertadores. If you're in the top 4 of the Apertura you qualify and the tournament starts after the Clausura transfer window with zero notification. I have my fingers crossed that EA will fix that on 17 and of course make some very much needed additions to the tournament. How many seasons were you at Sinaloa?

I was in Mexico a year and a half. Right away won the first league (clausura) which was shocking, then had an even better showing in the following apertura and just choked in the final after I had gotten a lead on the first leg on the road (gave up two goals in the last 20 minutes or so). Then in the following clausura I again had a very good regular season but lost in quarters of the playoffs, lost in the semis of the Libertadores to Boca (who are a monster) and was let go at the end of the season. Makes no sense. If you look at my most recent GT update they finished last or second to last in the tournaments this past season. Absurd. But hey, I found a stud CB through the academy there whom I brought to Turkey. Too bad he's Mexican though lol, I could really use someone like him the Venezuelan NT.
